Both EQuIS Professional and Enterprise provide the option to group reports.
Note: Whether the groups are created in Professional or Enterprise, the groups will be available in both places. |
Reports may also be grouped in Enterprise via the Explorer Widget.
Complete the following steps to group reports in Professional:
1.Open RT_GROUP and RT_GROUP_MEMBER.
2.In RT_GROUP, create a new record. The three major fields to fill in are: GROUP_CODE, GROUP_TYPE, and GROUP_DESC.
a.GROUP_CODE contains a short name for the group.
b.GROUP_TYPE is "report_id"
c.GROUP_DESC is the Folder name that will appear.
d.Assigning a facility in FACILITY_ID allows the group to be facility specific. Leaving it blank will allow all facilities to access the group.
3.In RT_GROUP_MEMBER, create a new record.
a.Type in the group code you just created in RT_GROUP.
b.In MEMBER_CODE, type in the id of the report to be added into the group. The REPORT_IDs can be found in ST_REPORT. For example, to include the Analytical Results Report, type in REPORT_ID.
c.In MEMBER_TYPE, type in "report_id".
d.Ensure that the STATUS_FLAG is set to "A".
